Zoom LiveTrak L-8
Best portable recording solution for podcasters and small music ensembles.
This portable console is the ultimate Swiss Army knife for podcasters who need studio-grade control on the go. By combining a mixer and multitrack recorder into one battery-powered unit, it sacrifices the deep customization of a full-sized studio rig for unmatched convenience and immediate, reliable results.
